Summary

Electronic and Computer Technician Vocational Education Incentive Grants Act - Amends the Vocational Education Act of 1963 to establish a program of incentive grants to States for electronic and computer technician training. Authorizes the Secretary of Education to make such grants solely for vocational education programs for such training. Prohibits use of any such grant for job placement or for training or employment stipends. Requires States participating in such grants program to commit specified percentages of their basic grants under such Act to such programs. Directs States to consider specified factors in evaluating training program proposals of eligible recipients. Limits Federal funds made available to an eligible recipient for such programs to 25 percent of such recipient's proposed budget for such training. Requires such recipient to: (1) use such funds only for job-related training for a specific electronic or computer technical occupation; (2) obtain at least 25 percent of its projected training budget through financial support of the electronics or computer industry; and (3) obtain at least another 25 percent through non- Federal public vocational education funds. Authorizes appropriations for FY 1983 and each succeeding fiscal year to carry out such grants program.
